Audience :
  • Geologists, geophysicists and reservoir engineers involved in integrated reservoir studies.

Level : Foundation

Course Content

  • OVERVIEW ON ELECTROFACIES ANALYSIS & ROCK-TYPING

      • Non-supervised approach and supervised approach for electrofacies analysis.
      • Preliminary quality control of logs with hands-on.
      • Integration of core description.
      • From electrofacies to rock types with hands-on.

  • NON-SUPERVISED ANALYSIS

      • Probabilistic and neural network approaches.
      • Hands-on non-supervised electrofacies analysis.
      • Key points in non-supervised analysis.

  • SUPERVISED ANALYSIS

      • Hands-on supervised analysis with probabilistic approach.
      • Key points and pitfalls in supervised analysis.
      • Electrofacies analysis workflow.
      • Hands-on integration of electrofacies in sequence stratigraphy analysis.

  • ROCK-TYPES DETERMINATION

      • Porosity and permeability modeling (hands-on).
      • Rock quality index (RQI, FZI, etc.).
      • Rock-typing with petrophysical data and capillary pressure curves: hands-on.
      • Workflow for electrofacies to rock-type assignments.

Learning Objectives

  • Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
  • identify electrofacies from logs,
  • identify log signatures and facies association,
  • define rock-types with petrophysical data (logs and laboratory data),
  • define Petrofacies from various relationships like Reservoir Quality Index, Winland R35 for net pay determination and other poro-perm transforms.

Ways & Means

  • Interactive presentations, practical exercises and hands-on activities.
